...effort to reassure clients, Andersen's partners fired the lead auditor on the Enron account, David Duncan, in January and admitted to Congress later in the month that potentially incriminating documents had been shredded. But suspicion that Andersen was not exactly forthright about the level of involvement of several executives was stoked by the revelation that Nancy Temple, a lawyer with the company, sent a memo reminding employees of Andersen's document-retention policies on Oct. 12. The memo, observers suspect, was a tacit order to start the shredding...
...Klein expressed it best in Primary Colors, the novel about a larger-than-life good ole boy with appetites as expansive as his brain. Fiction allowed Klein (writing as "Anonymous") to fill in the blanks about Clinton with things he knew to be true but no reporter could document. After reading the book, you just knew that Clinton stuffed his face with doughnuts till sugar spilled out of his mouth and that he would cheat on his wife and do anything to cover...

Presumably, so few undergraduates even recognize the reference to the forgotten and beleaguered document, created in the wake of the 1969 University Hall takeover, that there just hasn’t been much reaction.

...after all, Harvard isn’t a democracy, it’s a private institution—but if Summers really wanted to remind the faculties of the existence of the statement, he could have done that without adding any language to the document. He would have looked far less heavy-handed and accomplished even more if he had taken a cue from Professors Phillip A Kuhn and James Engell—who suggested reaffirming the statement in a September Faculty Council meeting—and created some Faculty forum for a reminder and discussion. Certainly, consulting the full...
...Taliban turned tail in Afghanistan and U.S. troops are helping to mop up Abu Sayyaf in the Philippines. But smoking out evil in Indonesia is fast becoming a foggy affair. Case in point: a supposedly top-secret document entitled 'Jihad War in Southeast Asia' outlined a plan to blow up the U.S. embassies in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore on Dec. 4. This screed fell into the hands of Indonesian police and surfaced in January as an exclusive for Singapore's Straits Times. A costly slip by the evildoers, it would seem. But why would the authors, purportedly from the radical...
